Huff and puff. They are 100% confident in it, and they've even gone far enough to hire interns onto the Glass team for the summer. They aren't giving up on the product by any means. Besides, they already confirmed a KitKat update is coming soon.

Google is definitely into glass.

Netflix hasn't officially confirmed that there's an Android app in the works, but it is hiring an "Android Video Playback Expert." Sounds like a pretty good hint that Android users will get a treat soon. [Ars Technica via GeekSugar]

Can't wait for this but its pretty old news to be honest http://tinyurl.com/2v7fv4z
It's definitely old news, but the articles he mentioned are recent. This was going around before the evo came out.

Ah, my bad. this is the first i've heard of it. sorry boys!
I am looking forward to this.
Hopefully its free or at least a decent price, unlike the slingbox app.
Darn... I got excited for a second. Old news. There is already a hack to make this possible on the Iphone. The Ipad supports it from the market. I'm sure its possible for high end phones, but the slower ones might stumble.j

I think it sounds interesting, and hopefully shows that companies are still pondering Android devices with gaming controls.
I'm not sure I'm a fan of the add-on controller strategy though... I do like that I always have the Play controls with me, conveniently tucked away when not in use.
EDIT: Note that it is a 10-inch tablet
I was interested. It does look good. Things like onlive would be great. In the end though, i just went and got the Asus transformer TF300.

Its kinda huge to be carrying all arround the place. Lol. The battery life it would drain with the game + gaming accesory would be terrible. Plus its gonna Cost how much??!! Why oh why couldn't they just make a device with a build in gamepad just like Play. Sony won't even bother like they not bothering giving us anymore update. What a waste.....
Somebody weak up sony ...

Pretty excited about it.
Let me know what you think.
A video will be up soon.

I am thinking of releasing the beta tomorrow. Just want to change a few more things.
Added the link
Looks great. Plays well too. Only suggestion I have is if you could make the ships projectiles a tad bigger. It's difficult to see them against the back drop.

Sony confirms Nougat update!

Sony has unveiled its plans to release 7.0 update for its top devices, and that includes X Performance. Although an obvious thing, it's good to hear from company, and know that it's paying attention.

im sure oneplus 3 owners said the same, then BAM... there was the T model less than 6 months later. never say never in the tech world. with the snapdragon 835 incoming google will for sure want to step it up somehow.
I would hope they don't rush this time and plan it out and come out with a better phone. 2017 and no waterproofing is crazy. Also I'm sick of these metal/glass "premium" phones. I beat the hell out of my GS5 for 3 years. It was always in a case but no screen protector. It's been soaking wet, covered is dirt/dust, dropped, etc.. there is NOTHING wrong with it. Not a single mark/scratch/dent. I have a screen protector and case on my pixel and I'm still scared as hell to drop it and have to worry about it for however long I keep it. It definitely will not hold up as good
